During her tenure, she will continue in her full-time position as creative talent and network director for sports and outdoor group Pentland Brands.
Stephanie Dick, CEO of The Textile Institute, said: “While Katie’s not the first World President we’ve had from Pentland Brands she’s certainly different from any President we’ve had before. Her vitality and passion for our industry is exactly what we need, and I have no doubt Katie will be a huge success in helping us to recruit talent into the industry, champion our corporate membership, accreditations and recognise and reward outstanding work in textiles.”
Pentland chairman, Stephen Rubin, was World President of The Textile Institute from 2008-2009.
“My role as World President of The Textile Institute is to help universities and the wider industry to see the importance of accreditation and to make sure we’re doing the right things - and to have a lot of fun while doing it,” Ms Greenyer said.
